Title: Navigation systems and methods for wheeled objects
Inventor: HANNAH STEPHEN E
IPC: H04W4/024
Filed: 2006-03-20
Abstract: A navigation system uses a dead reckoning method to estimate an object's present position relative to one or more prior positions. In some embodiments, the dead reckoning method determines a change in position from the object's heading and speed during an elapsed time interval. In embodiments suitable for use with wheeled objects, the dead reckoning method determines the change in position by measuring the heading and the amount of wheel rotation. In a preferred embodiment, the heading is determined with reference to the Earth's magnetic field by disposing magnetic sensors in or on the object. Error correction and position reset procedures may be implemented to reduce accumulated navigational error. In preferred embodiments, some or all of the navigation system is disposed within a wheel of the object. In certain embodiments, the navigation system determines whether the object has exited a confinement area and activates an anti-theft system such as an alarm or a wheel locking mechanism. The navigation system can be configured to communicate with external markers and/or RF transmitters. In some embodiments, the markers comprise magnetic elements arranged to produce a magnetic signal indicating a direction or other suitable information.

Title: Gland leakage seal system
Inventor: LERNER YAKOV
IPC: F01K13/00
Filed: 2006-05-11
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a turbine seal system. The turbine seal system captures working fluid which is escaping from a closed loop thermodynamic cycle system, condenses the captured working fluid, and returns the condensate back to the thermodynamic cycle system. The turbine seal system is configured to apply nitrogen, or other non-condensable, or other material, to capture or mix with the escaping working fluid. The combined mixture of working fluid which escapes the turbine and the nitrogen utilized to capture the working fluid is evacuated by an exhaust compressor which maintains a desired vacuum in a gland seal compartment of the turbine seal. The combined mixture can then be sent to a condenser to condense the working fluid vapor and evacuate the non-condensables, forming a working stream. Once the non-condensables have been evacuated, the working stream is pumped to a higher pressure, and prepared to be re-introduced into the thermodynamic cycle system.

Title: Nut feeding method and nut feeder
Inventor: MIURA SEIJI
IPC: B23P19/06
Filed: 2007-10-17
Abstract: A small-diameter front-end portion of a feed rod is allowed to enter into the screw hole of a nut delivered by a nut chute, and the nut is fed to an intended position by the forward movement of the feed rod. When an abnormal nut having a screw hole into which the small-diameter front-end portion cannot be inserted is delivered, the abnormal nut is prevented from being flicked by the feed rod. In order to achieve this, in a standby state, the small-diameter front-end portion of the feed rod enters a nut receiving chamber and is then stopped. On condition that the abnormal nut is received in the nut receiving chamber, if the feed rod moves forward to enter into the standby state, the abnormal nut is slightly pushed out forward from the nut receiving chamber.
